In what kind of cases does the North Carolina Court of Appeals typically handle?

The North Carolina Court of Appeals primarily handles cases that have been appealed from trial courts. This means that when a case is decided at the lower trial court level and one of the parties believes there has been an error in that decision, they can appeal to the Court of Appeals for a review. The appellate court does not typically revisit new cases that have not been part of prior rulings, nor does it normally deal with cases already decided by the Supreme Court, since those cases cannot be appealed further within state appellate court structure. Additionally, while certain minor traffic violations may be appealed, they generally do not fall under the jurisdiction of the Court of Appeals, which focuses on more substantive legal issues arising from trial court decisions. Therefore, the correct answer reflects the Court's role in reviewing and reconsidering judgments from lower courts.
